1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Silicone gel-filled breast implants are widely used for breast augmentation and reconstruction after mastectomy. However, there are some known complications associated with silicone implants: Leakage and migration of silicone particles from the implant cause a granulomatous reaction. Granulomas may present as masses with features of malignancy on breast MRI. We present a case of a giant breast siliconoma in a woman who had undergone reconstruction with breast prostheses, which were surgically removed because of rupture 8 years ago.
